Chapter (7) Strange Huangquan Village (I)
I don't want to make it about when the sky is slightly bright, outside the Shura Palace, everyone has been prepared, and at a long distance, the black slave is waiting with his eyes and nose and nose, but he secretly glanced back, and the person in dark gray clothes is still confronting the person in dark color.
Yan Yunqing completely lost the indifferent look he had at the beginning, he lowered his eyes slightly, and looked at the ghost venerable with his deep eyes, he pursed his lips, his eyes were full of loss, and the delicate and picturesque face seemed to have four big words of gloom and sadness written on it, he was half lost and half worried, "Can't Yun Qing go forward with the honor?" ”
Ghost Zun had a gloomy face, expressionless, the person in front of him seemed to have changed the soul of someone else, except for his appearance, his temperament was almost no different from another person, Ghost Zun didn't want to waste any more words, turned around and wanted to leave.
Yan Yunqing didn't hesitate for a moment to grab the cuffs of the ghost venerable's coat, but he was suddenly shaken open, he looked at the formation that suddenly showed red light under his feet in surprise, and when he raised his head again, a look of pleasure flashed on the ghost venerable's face, he raised his chin slightly, and said with a little smile, "Young man, stay here honestly, the deity will not be accompanied." ”
Ghost Venerable strode forward, and after a few steps, he came to Yan Nianqing and the others, and said, "Let's go." ”
Yan Yunqing watched those people in the distance gradually turn into a point of light in the sky, the corners of his mouth were slightly hooked, heh, it was really careless, too, with that person's ability, how could he waste time arguing with him, it was just to divert his attention.
Just looking at the person in front of him, he felt that his empty heart was filled in an instant, and he was very satisfied, even if he was arguing with that person, he couldn't help but put himself into it, looking at the person's vivid eyebrows, he sighed in his heart one after another, how happy.
How fortunate to be able to meet him in this life.
"Yo, isn't this our Lord Hades?" A familiar and tired voice suddenly sounded from Yan Yunqing's ears, Yan Yunqing didn't need to look, he knew who the person was, and when the person hadn't come back, this person hadn't come to the underworld.
Bai Lian's face was still wearing the milky white mask with pale pink peach blossom lines, wearing silver-gray clothes with a little dark gray peach blossom patterns, a dark blue sachet pinned to his waist, a pale green jade crown on his head to fix the tied hair, and a folding fan in his hand, he mocked, "What, was left behind by His Excellency?" I really didn't think that our Lord Yama would be left behind one day, I thought you could go to the end with the Venerable! ”
Yan Yunqing's hand hidden in his sleeve clenched unconsciously, but his face was indifferent, and he replied, "Accept your good words." ”
"Huh!" Bai Lian sneered, "I'm afraid our Lord Yama didn't wake up, if I'm not mistaken, when he died on the edge of the pool, it was the last trip you sent him, right?" ”
Yan Yunqing lowered his eyes, his body shook violently, he was stabbed again and again, and now even if he explained it was in vain, no one would believe him, not even that person would listen to his defense.
Bai Lian looked at Yan Yunqing's speechless appearance, his heart was indescribably happy, Bai Lian sneered, and said, "Lord Yan should stay here, as for the honorable one, it will be done with me, you, it is better to go back to the underworld as soon as possible to deal with the official documents." ”
Bai Lian said, and walked in the direction where the ghost venerable left, and the face spirit was no longer able to complain, "This is very interesting?" ”
Bai Lian communicated with the face spirit in the sea of knowledge, "It's interesting, I feel comfortable when I see that he is not happy." ”
The face spirit didn't expect that the ghost venerable could come back, after all, in the small world, they didn't see such a future, seeing Bai Lian like this, they could only sigh, he was just a face spirit, and he couldn't interfere with Bai Lian's choice, so he could only help.
Thinking about Bai Lian's agreement with the mysterious man, the face spirit couldn't help but persuade again, "In everything, it's better to be careful!" Sometimes in this world, even I can't believe myself. ”
Bai Lian paused, "I know." ”
The face spirit stopped making a sound, and helped Bai Lian hide his figure, and followed behind the ghost venerable for a short distance.
Outside the Shura Palace, a faint layer of white light loomed on Yan Yunqing's body, and a thick layer of ice formed on the ground slowly covered the magic circle that the Ghost Venerable had just set up, and with a "bang" sound, the ice pieces shattered all of a sudden, and the magic circle dissipated in an instant, Yan Yunqing's face turned a little paler, he silently watched the direction of the Ghost Venerable's departure, and then shook his head helplessly, after so many years, his cultivation was naturally much higher than at the beginning.
How could he not crack such a formation, Yan Yunqing thought, and left the Shura Hall in a hurry, the person still had the ghost cloud hairpin on him, he could clearly feel the location of the ghost venerable, just like when the person saved him with the soul bead, he also let go of his own soul and soul on the ghost cloud hairpin, and at a critical time, he could also save that person's life, although there were not many people in this world who could hurt that person, but he was still a little relieved.
Here, Yan Yunqing followed silently, and over there, the Ghost Venerable and his party had already arrived at their destination, and the sky was already bright.
With the soul chasing spike, the ghost venerable explored this place, a small village that appeared in his strange dream.
The ghost venerable and they stopped on a small steep slope, some distance from the small mountain village, outside the village there was no mass grave he saw in his dream, but it was also very desolate, the first few miles outside the village, all dead dead wood, the soil under their feet could also be vaguely found burning, occasionally a few crows called, the black slave frowned, released his divine sense to investigate, there was no living creature in this place.
The three of them involuntarily stood in front of them, taking the lead for the ghost zun, and the ghost zun waved his hand helplessly, and said, "Come back, the deity didn't bring you to fight, this place is very weird, although it is good to be cautious, but it is not too grassy and woody." "Strike the grass and scare the snake.
There are also four words Ghost Venerable used his divine sense to pass on to everyone present, just when he was in the sky, he vaguely saw that a demonic aura surrounded the village, and it had not dispersed for a long time, and the other party was so blatant, he must have calculated that they would come.
It turned out to be so, but they had to guard against it, and it was better for him to take the lead.
Ghost Zun smiled, took his baby's hand for a long time, and said, "Let's go, it's rare for my mother to take you out for a walk." ”
Yan Nianqing looked sideways at Ghost Venerable, but his eyes were involuntarily red, he blushed slightly, and nodded slightly.
Ghost Zun and Yan Nianqing walked in front, followed by the black slave and the dragon, followed by the last and the dragon.
Bo Xi hung his head, obviously feeling the difference here, he hugged one of Wei's arms tightly, and said in a low voice, "Xiao, Bo Xi is afraid." ”
As soon as the soft voice came out, the lower abdomen of the man couldn't help but tighten, and he pulled out the arm that was hugged by Bo Xi, and hugged Bo Xi's thin. waist, his hands kept rubbing, not noticing the extremely obscene smile on his face.
I didn't expect him to have today, Wei laughed for a long time, and then whispered softly in Bo Xi's ear, "Don't be afraid, I'm here." ”
Looking at the person in his arms, he nodded meekly, the tips of his ears were slightly red, and he secretly said in his heart, this
Ancient Yu. Thing, his luck was really good.
Along a path, the ghost came to the gate of the village, he saw the stone tablet in the dream, the tablet was engraved with three words, the word is not like the technique of a famous artist, but like the graffiti of a child who has just learned to write, twisted and crooked font, after looking at it for a long time, it was seen that it was written, "Huangquan Village".
The stele seems to be a dividing line, with the stele as the boundary, there is almost no grass outside the village, but inside the village, it is a scene full of vitality, rows of rubble houses look over, and look at this village is also rich.
But this rich village, the completely different scenes inside and outside the village, are shocking.
Ghost Zun seemed to have no worries, and stepped into the village, this Huangquan Village was eerily quiet, the streets were empty, there were no pedestrians, the doors and windows of those houses were closed tightly, Ghost Zun led Yan Nianqing around the village, and finally, at the end of a street, he saw a child sitting on a stone, the child's face was ruddy, and he was not as morbidly pale as he dreamed.
The child, dressed in coarse cloth and holding a string of sugar gourds in his hand, saw that someone was coming, and hurriedly ate the remaining sugar gourds, licked the small bamboo sticks that wore the sugar gourds a few times, and then put the bamboo sticks into the small bag he was carrying.
After the child did this, he stepped forward and greeted him with a smile, "Are you going to be a tip or a hotel?" ”
Hearing this, Ghost Venerable said indifferently, "Stay in the hotel." ”
The child quickly ran to the door of the little inn, stretched out his hands, and said with a smile, "Guests, please!" ”
Ghost Venerable nodded, and led Yan Nianqing into the inn, if it weren't for the child's voice, the black slaves wouldn't have seen that there was still an inn here.
The plaque on the inn with the inscription "Huangquan Inn" trembled, as if it was going to fall down in the next moment, the inside of the inn was also the same as the outside, it was very simple, the child seemed to be very happy to welcome the guests, and it was very diligent to wipe the only two tables and four benches in the inn.
The workmanship of the stool was very rough, and there were still some wooden thorns that had not been shaved clean, and as soon as Ghost Zun and Yan Nianqing sat down, the stool began to shake, making a "crunch", which seemed to be the sound of the bench being scrapped.
Seeing that the ghost venerable sat down, the rest of the people also sat down, and the protest of the benches sounded in the inn, and the child touched his nose embarrassedly, and said, "I'm sorry, no one has come to the village for a long time, and this inn is the first time in recent years that it has welcomed guests!" ”
Ghost Venerable smiled gently, "It's okay, what's your name?" ”
The child smiled shyly, "Brother, my name is Ah Mao." ”
After being called brother, Ghost Zun raised his eyebrows and smiled even more, "Ah Mao, are we such people, can we live in the inn?" ”
Hearing this, Ah Mao hurriedly nodded, "I can live, I can live, the only four rooms in our inn are still empty!" ”
Wei Wei's face was full of ghostly expressions, he blinked his eyes several times before he was sure that he was not mistaken, the Lord was so approachable to talk to a child, Wei frowned, why didn't the Lord ask the point directly!
In such a strange village, only this child is guarding here, what about the rest? Is it dead?
Ghost Venerable took out some broken silver, put it on the table, and said with a smile, "A few of us passed by here, thinking about staying in this inn for some time, and these lunches should be used as room money." ”
Ah Mao stepped forward and counted carefully, a full five pieces of broken silver, he took a few steps back, shook his head and waved his hand, "Guest, this, this, this is too much, our inn is so simple, we don't need so much!" ”
Ghost Zun propped his chin and said without changing his face, "It's okay, the rest should be the food money and the money to buy you sugar gourds, my brother likes you a lot." ”
When Ah Mao heard this, he looked at the handsome and extraordinary person in front of him, blushed and lowered his head embarrassedly.
Yan Nianqing's face was expressionless, and she looked helplessly at her mother's face and teasing the little boy in front of her.
